stalling and fuel delivery problem

89 5.7 41000 miles picked it up a year ago... has a fuel delivery problem.. things that are new on it are fuel pump,fuel regulator,injectors,cap rotor wires plugs,Car sometimes has a problem starting up i have to put some gas in the throttle body and keep turn the key till it starts motor runs rough.. have to keep foot on gas sometimes when driving cuz it stalls... car has been a nightmare.. buddy wants me to just carb it but i really dont want to cuz its such in good shape...And the hotter it is out side the shittier the car runs...
